Apple set to establish official presence in India

Apple is all set to establish an official presence in India, launching six stores between Mumbai and Bengaluru.

Straying from the norm, the stores will be launched in partnership with manufacturing company Tata’s consumer electronics chain Croma. Apple devices are already available in India through franchises and other electronics shops, but the Tata contract finally allows them to have an official presence in the country of 1.2 billion people.

Although the six locations will be at Croma’s own stores and will not be operated by Apple Inc, they will feature the signature design, furniture, fixtures and lighting used in Apple stores worldwide and the staff will be trained by the company itself.

The partnership is in accordance with local laws, which stipulate that foreign investors have to have a local partner to set up shops. Apple was hesitant due to the law but by partenering with an Indian company they may get around the law.

Apple hopes to increase their sales in India where 1.7 million iPhones were sold between October 2014 and September 2015, 600,00 more than the previous year. The stores’ opening will coincide with the Diwali festival in November.

Lenskart to aggressively expand offline

Valyoo Technologies Pvt. Ltd, which runs online eyewear retailer Lenskart, is eyeing earnings of Rs.3,000 crore in the next five years as it aggressively expands its offline presence.

Valyoo is seeking franchise Partners  to open 2,000 franchise stores in next 5 years, a top executive said. “At the end of the day, we want more and more touch points to be available,” chief executive officer and founder Peyush Bansal said. “They have great marketing and customer acquisition channel.” The firm is looking mostly at smaller cities. “Though it’s a slower market but has huge opportunity, People have high aspirations and want to buy quality products,” Bansal said.

There is significant advantage of online and offline merchandise. It is all about how a company reaches out to more and more customers, While these outlets not only help customers link themselves to the brand but they also lead to increase in buying. They also reduce the return rate as the customers have checked the product offline.”

Along with this, the gym chain has its own Gold’s Gym Fitness Institute for fitness trainers as it lays focus on qualified and trained coaches for its centres. “Trainers are the soul of this business and to have qualified trainers is a must.

Adidas to broaden footprint via omni-channel stores

German sportswear major adidas is looking to establish its footprint in India not just through increased offline and online presence, but also by firming up the omni-channel strategy.

The omni-channel or multiple channel retailing will let its shoppers order products online from adidas’ standalone stores.

According to Dave Thomas, adidas India, MD, these stores will be equipped with tablet PCs for placing orders.

A successful pilot (for multiple channel retailing) earlier this year, followed by introduction across 25-odd stores so far, has seen increased demand for offerings “by thousands”.

“This is of great benefit to us (the company), especially in the smaller franchise units, where the entire range of offerings cannot be displayed. We intend to increase the number of such stores,” he said. adidas has a product line of 5,000-odd items.

Omni-channel stores will be shored up to 200 by the year-end and, to 400, by mid-2016.

In terms of delivery of products, adidas will be relying on its e-commerce partners.

Revenues will be split between the e-commerce partner and the franchisee from where the order has been placed.

“There is a revenue sharing model that is there. It will help both as business will not be taken away from either of them,” Thomas said.

India, currently, accounts for 15 per cent of the company’s emerging market sales. Emerging markets include 78-80 countries across West Asia, South Asia, Indian sub-continent and Africa.

According to sources, the omni-channel presence will also reduce conflicts between online and offline stores.

Online strategy for adidas, include a separate product range dedicated for e-retailers.

The company is also looking to increase its offline presence (brick and mortar stores).

It currently has 760 stores across three brands – adidas (500-odd stores), adidas Originals (11) and the US-based Reebok that it acquired in 2006 (249-odd).

The plan is to increase the store count to 1,000 over the next three to five year period.

Meanwhile, adidas has also proposed 100 per cent foreign direct investment scheme (for single brand stores) to the Department Industrial Policy & Promotion (DIPP), in addition to ‘only franchise’ format, it currently operates here.

Burger King opens 20th outlet in India

American fast-food chain Burger King on Tuesday rolled out its 20th outlet in India with the opening of a restaurant in west Delhi's Rajouri Garden. 

The chain known for its Whopper burgers entered India in November last year through a franchisee agreement with private equity fund Everstone Capital and the company has so far opened outlets in Delhi, Mumbai, Pune, Bengaluru and Chandigarh. 

"This is the ninth outlet in the NCR (National Capital Region) including the one in Gurgaon," said Jaspal Singh Sabharwal, partner with Everstone, which holds a 25-year master franchisee agreement with Burger King.

French menswear company Celio to increase local sourcing

French menswear company Celio International is planning to take the franchise route and increase local sourcing in the country.

With 41 stores and 130 shop-in-shops, Celio had entered the country six years ago through a joint venture with Future Lifestyle Fashion. Since then it has steadily increased its stake from 50 per cent earlier to 97 per cent.

Rajiv Nair, CEO, Celio Future Fashion, said: “We need a franchise model to penetrate smaller cities and high streets as there are plans to open 8-10 stores every year. As a company we become less capital-intensive with franchises who can make the business run profitably.’’

Celio is the largest selling menswear brand in France with a 18 per cent share. Almost two years ago, the owner of Celio International, Marc Grosman, had visited India to apply for higher FDI, which is allowed for single brand retail. Since then the French company has been steadily increasing stake and hence bringing in capital to build the business in India.

“There has been capital infusion from Celio International as we have increased our stake to 97 per cent while the balance of 3 per cent is still held by Future Lifestyle Fashion,’’ added Nair.

Celio is now gearing up for competition as international brands have been steadily entering the market with companies like Zara, Gas, Gap and now H&M making their way to India. “Today, we have 18 per cent growth among our like-to-like stores but have to wait for another year before we can make money in India,’’ said Nair.

E-commerce is also a channel being explored by the retail company as almost 9 per cent of sales currently come from this channel.

“We still cannot do e-commerce directly but once we get FDI complaint we may look at a payment gateway from our company site,’’ said Nair.

Also local sourcing is expected to increase from 60 to75 per cent as certain products cannot typically get made in India. Celio continues to outsource from places such as Tirupur, Bengaluru and Ludhiana.

As Nair adds, “While we have to follow the norms for local sourcing, there will continue to be imported items like jackets which are best made abroad.’’
